Trump must have paid a lot of attention to his buddy Vince McMahon.

He has the heel shtick down pat.

That being said I don't want to hear the GOP cry about the lack of comity. Trump is doing everything possible to enrage and divide.

Big show comes to town. Locals get drunk and go to scream and yell. Trump makes dramatic entrance. Trump plays both heel and hero. Mix in some (often staged) violence.

He literally stole the Undertakers entrance for his at th convention. I would be shocked if McMahon didn't play a big part in advising him on how to stage events. Vince knows what he's doing - if he can keep wrestling alive and cranking out money in an era with MMA and a variety of short attention span/made for instant viewing sporting events, he must know what he's doing.

After he leaves office it will be straight in to the WWE world. He can do everything he likes. Throw fits, scream, act like he is important, etc.
